The length of Tom’s rectangular classroom floor is 8 feet longer than 2 times the width. The perimeter of his classroom floor is 124 feet. Write and solve an
equation to find the length of his classroom.

Length= 44 feet

Width= 18 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length= x

Let the width = y

Length is 8 feet longer than 2 times the

width.

X= 8+2y

The perimeter of his classroom floor is 124 feet

Perimeter= 2(x+y)

124= 2x+2y

But x= 8+2y

124= 2x+2y

124= 2(8+2y) +2y

124= 16 +4y +2y

124-16= 6y

108= 6y

18 = y

Width= 18 feet

X= 8+2y

X= 8 +2(18)

X= 8+36

X= 44

Length= 44 feet

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.

the answer is y < -3 or   y > 3

-3y > 7 + 2

-3 y > 9

y < -3
